1989 Skoda Estelle 120L Five, solid, runs, needs recommissioning For Sale

Please read ALL of the description and look at the pictures.
This is a private sale of my wife's Skoda Estelle.
We have decided to turn the garage into a craft studio, so reluctantly our Skoda has to go.

The Skoda starts and runs. It moves under its own power. The lights, indicators etc work. It is running on fresh fuel supplied using an improvised feed (syringe and fuel pipe). The fuel pump is pumping the old fuel into a green fuel can. You can not currently add more fuel to the tank as the rubber pipe between the filler and tank is split, at least that is what I assume has happened. When you put fresh fuel in the filler, it comes out on the floor and doesn’t make it to the tank. (Don't worry a new pipe is included in the mountain of spares). The brakes are a bit grabby from standing, If you apply them you then need to rock the car back and forth a bit to free them. But they do free enough to allow the car to be pushed by one person, so they are not seized. The last time we turned the heater on it dripped on the floor inside the car, Fine when it is off. This might just be the return hose or the on/ off valve or the heater matrix itself. There is as spare valve and matrix in the spares. The car is very solid indeed, with almost no corrosion. When we bought it, we hunted down the very best one we could find, and then I blasted it with Waxoyl and ACF50 to keep it that way. No bubbling paint on the wheel arches, sills, etc and very good underneath.

There is no water in the oil, no oil in the water and no steam in the exhaust. The engine has always run smoothly and quietly. We always use Millers lead replacement additive, never sure if it really needs it, but it can’t do any harm.

The interior is pretty good, no rips in the head lining, no cracks in the dashboard. The original carpets are under the mats we cut to fit. The seat covers are tailor made for the Estelle by a German company. The original seat fabric has been damaged by sun light, (if you have ever owned a Skoda of this era and left it outside for more than a week, you will know exactly what I mean, the fabric didn’t seem to like UV).

It will require work (brakes, fuel, heater, etc), and you will not be able to drive it home, so it will need transporting (I know a transport man if you need a number). You will still need to collect all the spares in a small van or estate car. Most of the spares are new (some are good used) and include front wing, grills, lights, indicators, suspension springs, rubber hoses, gaskets, dash board, heater matrix, fuel filler hose, brake parts, radiator, wheel bearings and countless other parts. I have included a picture of just a few of the spares so you can see they are not just old junk. There is also a small file of history, old pictures and brochures. Location is PE13 (Wisbech).

NOTE – the pictures of it outside our garage having just been washed are the car as it is right now. Any pictures not in our garden, for example at a car show are from when we had it on the road. The cosmetic condition has not changed, our garage is very very dry.

I have a video of it as well, but I can not upload this to the advert. If you want to watch it, please contact me and I will send you a link.
